5 unique kulfi recipes that make a great dessert
Tips for making malai kulfi at home:
- Always use iron or aluminum kadai for making kulfi.
- After the milk boils, cook on low heat, stirring constantly.
- Remove the cream that has collected on the sides of the pan and mix it into the milk.
- Boil the milk until it is less than half the amount of milk you started with.
- Some people use corn flour to thicken the Kulfi mixture, but you can add extra malai and ground almonds for a better texture.
- Allow the mixture to cool completely before pouring into the kulfi moulds.
- Kulfi takes 7-8 hours to set completely, so don’t open the fridge in between.
- To prevent ice crystals from forming, cover the Kulfi mixture with silver foil after pouring it into the mold or bowl. If you are freezing it in a container, stir it after 2-3 hours and cover it again.
How to make Malay Kulfi at home:
To make Malay Kulfi at home, pour 2 liters of milk in a pan and boil. Boil the milk until reduced by half, about 20 minutes. Then add half a cup of sugar, malai and almond powder and cook while stirring. When the mixture thickens, turn off the gas and let it cool completely. Pour the mixture into a Kulfi mold or bowl and leave it for 7-8 hours or overnight.
